The familiar ringtone of her cellphone woke Hui Yin up.
'Following my heart's direction,
I'll advance on the battlefield,
To exceed my own limits—'
Hui Yin's slender hand reached out from under the blanket, blindly searching for her phone as the song continued to play. <Bravado> was one of the less popular songs of Liu Jun, but she liked it because of the lyrics.
Pulling down the sheets, she slowly opened her eyes to the bright sunlight streaming into the room. Both the two little buns were still asleep, and Hui Yin smiled at the sight of Baby Shang sucking on his thumb.
Trying not to disturb the two of them, she got out of the bed and into the kitchen to receive the phone call.
"Hello?" Hui Yin stifled a yawn as she poured herself a glass of water.
An excited voice answered her dismal greeting.
"You got it! You got the PV!"
Hui Yin snapped awake.
"Sister Su? What do you mean?"
"Liu Jun's PV! The director called me just now and told me that you got it. You'll be the one to star in Liu Jun's PV!"
Hui Yin glanced at the bedroom where the two little buns were still sleeping before dashing into the bathroom and hurriedly closing the door. Covering her mouth with her hand, she released a happy squeal.
"I did it? I got the PV? Sister Su, am I dreaming? I got the PV! OMG, I got the PV!"
The two of them giggled stupidly, but they were both drunk on happiness. One had to consider the years Hui Yin had spent acting scenes fit for an extra, and that she sometimes couldn't even land a minor supporting role on the auditions she tried out for.
"Director Sun told me that the shooting starts tomorrow, and that the location will be on somewhere far away from the city," Sister Su informed Hui Yin after they managed to calm down a bit. "It'll be basically just you and Liu Jun in this PV, and while this will be a good stepping stone to get you more fame in the industry, this would also mean that they'll be watching you closely during the shoot. Any little mistake will result in a retake, so you have to be careful."
Hui Yin took a deep breath and nodded. "I understand."
"I believe that you can do it." Sister Su's voice was resolute. "I've always known that you were talented, and it was only Fei Hong's influence that suppressed you so much as an actress. Director Sun has a reputation for being kind, so I believe that you're in good hands. Just do your best, and who knows, Liu Jun's next love song might be about you."
"Sister Su!" Hui Yin knew that she was only teasing, so she didn't mind it too much.
Her manager laughed.
"Alright, alright, I'll let you get back to sleep. I'll call you later to fill you in about the other details for tomorrow."
But when the call ended, Hui Yin was too filled with excitement to fall back asleep.
She bustled around the kitchen to cook the two little buns some breakfast, humming softly under her breath.
She couldn't believe she was going to star in Liu Jun's PV!
